[QUOTE="Miscstuff, post: 310647, member: 1331"]This little porcelain house with an operational chimney was listed in part of a lot as a “pastille burner”. I couldn't figure out why on earth you would burn sweets so after a little googling found this site and a fascinating story about the origin of pastille burners. [URL]https://regencyredingote.wordpress.com/2013/10/11/pastille-burners-regency-glade/[/URL] Not sure why the auctioneers called it a “Staffordshire” pastille burner as there are no marks anywhere. Wish some company had marked it as it would have made dating easier. Dimensions – 9.9cm x 7.9cm x 11cm high – 0.24Kg.
